That Lady Part 1&2

Who's that Lady?

Man, I love this song. I used to work in a Dollar Store and this song would be played on our PA every so often. I used to go in the office and turn it up. I even made the intro my wife's ringtone so when she calls me I always know "Who's that Lady?"

The song actually was cut in 1964. They recut it in 1969. Carlos Santana was popular at the time and they wanted to re-cut the song with a Latin-Funk sound to it.

They paid for their younger brother Ernie to attend music school and he wound up paying them back by creating a legendary guitar solo. It hit the Top Ten at #6 in 1973.

I actually just discovered this song a couple years ago when it played on the radio. I don't know why I don't remember it from anywhere before that. That guitar solo is brilliant. I think it was the Beastie Boys that sampled it?
